The “SexyBack” singer, who described himself as a private person, wrote he considered ending the tour when diagnosed, but wrote that he “decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I’m so glad I kept going.”

As Puregold’s hit digital series heads toward its most daring episode yet, the story of Sol (Zaijian Jaranilla) and Luna (Jane Oineza) rises to a new level of emotional and narrative complexity.

In the previous installment of Si Sol at si Luna, titled “Missing Person: Luna,” Luna appeared to distance herself after an electrifying kiss with Sol in the office elevator. Much to the delight of viewers, the ultimate kilig moment seemed to foretell the start of something deeper, but before they could hold their breath, Luna began to pull away.

One best way to get rid of the so-called excesses that usually characterize the yearly State of the Nation Address (SONA) of the President of the Republic is to do away with the wives of government officials. It’s the women who try to overdress and outshine each other with fancy gowns and sparkling jewels on such an occasion.

The men dress simply in their native barongs. A shout-out also to the members of Congress and the Senate who are women, to keep things simple and low-key.

One of my favorite local sitcoms is ABS-CBN’s “Abangan ang Susunod na Kabanata” of Direk Jose Javier Reyes. (aliw ang baliw baliwan characters dito!) I even made a special report about it for a project in high school. (bilang lagi naman ako watch nyan every Monday night!) I am not sure if this kind of show, which features satire and spoofs of current events, will still be accepted by the TV viewing public. (marami na kasing sensitive ngayon ha!)

I remembered this show recently when our Head of Productions and Director Lex Bonife of our YouTube channel, WTFu, asked if it was ok to have a spoof character of the controversial viral videos of a gay man from China. (alam na yan ni Aling Tasing!) My answer was: “We can try.” (so go na yan!) Our production team immediately got a talent to play the part. (bilang bawal ang babagal bagal kay direk!) They were suggesting names for the character, but I thought of using: “Ate Hong” (bilang tahong ang kinain ko before ng taping!)

In the colorful, animated, musical world of “KPop Demon Hunters,” everyone is a fan. The general public rocks T-shirts supporting their favorite idols. They hold light sticks and stare starry-eyed at stadium stages; they scream, they cry, they cheer, they buy the merch.

It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, then, that the Sony Pictures/ Netflix film itself has inspired similar fanfare, having topped the streamer’s global rankings. Fans have flooded the internet with art, covers, cosplay and choreography in response to the movie, which follows the fictional K-pop girl group HUNTR/X as they fight demons.

In a bold, emotional moment, rising Sparkle artist Shuvee Etrata opened up about the harsh realities she faces as a provincial lass entering showbiz, challenging the stereotypes that continue to follow her. “Kasi feeling nila taga-isla 'tapos makuha agad nila yung virginity (ko),” stated Shuvee in a interview with Vice Ganda, relating some actors she met.

She didn't name names even as a surprised Vice Ganda joked: “Ay, ganun talaga, virginity agad? Hindi puwede kung magtatanong lang kung magkano ang pearl sa isla ninyo? Hindi man lang magtatanong (kung) magkano banana boat sa inyo?”
